The Asian Christian Church: articles & Christian web sites about Christianity in Asia
Hi there Christians everywhere! We wanted to take a look at the state of the church in the Eastern parts of our world. The following page contains articles and Information on Asian Christians and Christianity. I decided to carry out my own research into Asian Christianity in other parts of the world and note my findings here.
The following sites and articles are what I found and give great insights into the Christian religion worldwide and illustrate how different it is for Christians in other countries. Many suffer far greater hardships than people from England or America will ever know about. Bookmark this page and use for later reading – Ive even done this myself since there is too much to take in!

Cambodia Church History
The history of the Cambodian church is a story of periods of growth alternating with periods of persecution. Cambodians who have turned to Jesus Christ from Buddhism or animism have been accused of betraying their country. The first Protestant missionaries arrived in 1923, but by 1970 there were only about 700 Christians in Cambodia. In 1965 Prince Sihanouk had expelled all missionaries in an anti-CIA campaign.
Between 1970 and 1975 missionaries were permitted to return and the church grew to about 10,000. Then came Year Zero. By 1979 only about 200 Christians remained alive in Cambodia. In 1990, when the church emerged from its most recent wave of persecution and was given government permission to function openly, there were ten evangelical churches in Cambodia. Today there are over two thousand, with a total membership of over 130,000.
